    The Spanish established Catholic Churches in the colonies where they converted thousands of Native American into Catholic. The Spanish used religion to obtain authority over Native American, to acquire wealth and power for their empire in Spain.

    Religion became more prominent in the New England colonies by the Britishers. New World became a haven place for the religious dissenters in the European countries, especially from Britain. Anglicanism spread to the New World in the early colonial period then came the Puritan in 1630, along with Protestants.
